/audit

Audit the knowledge base for quality issues: missing frontmatter, broken links, tag inconsistencies, orphaned files, and coverage gaps. Works on any markdown-heavy project.

Steps

1. Parse focus area from $ARGUMENTS (optional). If provided, focus on that area (e.g., "tags", "frontmatter", "links"). If empty, run full audit.

2. Find all markdown files: Use Glob to find all .md files, excluding common non-content directories: .venv/, node_modules/, .git/, archive/, .archive_old/.

3. Frontmatter audit: First, scan a sample of existing files (first 10-20) to detect the frontmatter schema in use (which fields exist, what values are common for type and status). Then for each markdown file, check:

   • Has YAML frontmatter (starts with --- and has closing ---)
   • Core fields present: title, tags (and any other fields consistently used across the KB)
   • type and status values (if used) are consistent with the detected schema
   • tags is a non-empty list Track files missing frontmatter and files with incomplete/invalid frontmatter.

4. Link check: Look for broken internal links:

   • Grep for markdown links \[.*\]\(.*\.md\) and verify each target file exists
   • If a link-checking script exists in the project (e.g., scripts/check_links.py), run it as well

5. Tag consistency audit: Use Grep to find all tags: sections across .md files. Look for:

   • Near-duplicate tags (e.g., "ai" vs "AI" vs "artificial-intelligence")
   • Tags used only once (potential typos)
   • Very common tags that might be too broad List all unique tags with counts.

6. Orphaned files: Check which files are NOT referenced in any other file's related: field. Files that exist but are never cross-referenced may be orphaned.

7. Content quality: Find documents that appear to be ideas or opportunities (based on detected type field or directory location) and check:

   • Documents still in draft status for more than 30 days
   • Documents missing key metadata fields that other similar documents have
   • Documents with very little content (< 100 words, excluding frontmatter)

8. Coverage gaps: Check each directory for content:

   • Flag any empty or near-empty directories
   • Look for directories with only 1-2 files (may need more content)

9. Output report:

Common Issues

No markdown files found

Cause: Running in wrong directory or all files excluded. Fix: Ensure you're in the knowledge base root. Check exclude patterns in step 2.

Too many single-use tags

Cause: Inconsistent tagging across documents. Fix: Pick canonical tags from the most-used list. Run audit again after cleanup.

Frontmatter validation errors

Cause: YAML syntax issues (missing quotes, wrong indentation). Fix: Ensure --- delimiters are present. Use type: and status: values consistent with your KB's detected schema.
